Keith, and what about those willing and unable to work?
Do 22% unemployed youth in Britain represent 22% of young people "unwilling to work"?
What about Greece's and Spain's 60% unemployed youth?
The topic of unemployment has definitely toppled over into an ostrich-head-in-the-sand theme.
If my theory is right, those unwilling to work wouldn't find a job anyway even if they wanted to, because millions who want to work can't even get a job. So what's the point always bringing up the "strain on society" speech?
I accept work whenever it's going, but sometimes there is none.
As for the Japanese system, what is wrong with people being happy doing half an hour exercise together before going to work?
They do it voluntarily, enjoy it, and feel healthier for it.
What I hope is, that people are allowed to have the liberty to live their own life, enjoy life, respect others, be respected, and have the right to work to earn a decent salary.
Currently this right is withheld from large numbers in our Society, which is bankrupt, and does not have policies or even a clue how to help millions of unemployed young people to earn a wage.
This thread has become the usual rant of a few against "those unwilling to work", when it was supposed to be about world unemployment. Whenever there is a topic about unemployment, it will inevitably be hijacked into a "scroungers" thread.
It's like a haunting manifestation, recurrent, predictable, and it will always go the same route through a closed door, through the cupboard and on through the wall....
Like a 78 record that keeps spinning and jumping on the same spot
